Scientific paper

In low flux, spectrally hard states of accreting stellar-mass black holes, a strong correlation between hard X-ray flux and radio flux has been observed. This has proved to be a powerful tool for understanding accretionin these systems, and has led to the realization that a compact jet may be an important source of X-ray emission and variability. Low-luminosity AGN bear strong similarities to stellar-mass black holes in low/hard states. Radio and X-ray coupling has not been tested in LLAGN, but has enormous potential to reveal the inner accretion flow in these systems. We propose to make 10 short (15 ksec) Chandra, VLA, and optical/IR observations of M81* in AO-7, to make a strong test of correlated variability which in turn constraints emission mechanisms and geometries.
